Galectin-3 as an early marker of diastolic dysfunction in children with end-stage renal disease on regular hemodialysis

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2022
Introduction and Aim : Diastolic dysfunction is a common finding in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on regular hemodialysis (HD). Galectin-3 (Gal-3) has emerged as an early biomarker with diagnostic and prognostic values in cardiac dysfunction with ...

Prevalence and Risk Factors of Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction in Patients With Hyperthyroidism

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
BackgroundLeft ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction has been demonstrated to be an independent predictor of the future heart failure. Heart failure is one of the severe complications caused by overt hyperthyroidism.

Diastolic dysfunction – negative prognostic factor in patients with hepatic cirrhosis [PDF]

open access: yesRomanian Medical Journal, 2017
Objectives. To evaluate the left ventricular diastolic function in patients with cirrhosis and to establish its relation to the degree of severity of liver disease as well as to biological markers of cardiac dysfunction. Methods. We included 72 patients

Diastolic dysfunction

open access: yesCurrent Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2004
Heart failure is a leading cause of hospital admissions in North America. Approximately half of patients with symptoms of heart failure have normal or minimally impaired systolic function and are therefore diagnosed, by exclusion, with diastolic dysfunction. The therapy of diastolic dysfunction to date is largely unsatisfactory.

Concomitant diastolic dysfunction further interferes with cognitive performance in moderate to severe systolic heart failure. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Studies of the relevance of cardiac functional markers to cognitive performance in heart failure (HF) have primarily focused on systolic markers. In this study, we examine whether concomitant diastolic dysfunction further interferes with cognitive ...

Diastolic dysfunction in hypertension

open access: yesHipertensión y Riesgo Vascular, 2017
Hypertension and coronary heart disease, often coexisting, are the most common risk factors for heart failure. The progression of hypertensive heart disease involves myocardial fibrosis and alterations in the left ventricular geometry that precede the functional change, initially asymptomatic.

Pre-operative point-of-care assessment of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, an observational study

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology, 2022
Background Left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction is an acknowledged peri-operative risk factor that should be identified before surgery. This study aimed to evaluate a simplified echocardiographic method using e’ and E/e’ for identification and ...

Looking for Diastolic Dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2002
To the Editor: Zile et al1 simplify the diagnosis of diastolic dysfunction by offering an easy approach: normal ejection fraction in a patient with heart failure strongly suggests diastolic dysfunction. Still, one needs an echocardiogram. I am surprised that they, like others,2,3⇓ do not make this difficult-seeming diagnosis even easier: if a patient ...

Correlation of lipid profile with diastolic dysfunction in normotensive young patients under 40 years of age

open access: yesAsian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2023
Background: Diastolic dysfunction in young adults is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The identification of risk markers associated with diastolic dysfunction could allow for targeted primary prevention efforts.
